Tonight, we’re stepping into a world where science, mystery, and the unexplained begin to blur together.

For decades, strange reports have surfaced from every corner of the world. Encounters with unidentified objects in the sky. Stories of portals and missing time. Sightings of creatures that shouldn’t exist. Most dismiss these accounts outright. Others dedicate their entire lives to trying to understand them.

Joining me today are Ron Meyer and Mark Reeder.

Ron is the producer behind Becoming Evil, one of the most streamed documentary series on serial killers, but his work stretches far beyond human darkness. He’s also a published scientist whose research has crossed into behavioral cybernetics and paleontology, while more recently exploring some of the strangest reported phenomena on Earth.

Mark Reeder has spent years investigating high strangeness, from UFO encounters and unexplained entities to the mysteries surrounding places linked with reports of portals, magnetic anomalies, and experiences that challenge conventional ideas of reality.

Together, they were involved in The Mysteries of Bradshaw Ranch: Aliens, Portals, and the Paranormal, where production itself reportedly became part of the story.

In this conversation, we explore whether high strangeness changes a person’s worldview… why mystery may be essential for human progress… theories surrounding UFOs and non-human intelligence… consciousness, collective memory, AI, mystical experiences, and what happens when lifelong skeptics encounter something they struggle to explain.

Today’s episode takes a slight turn from the usual, but in a way that still taps into something I find just as fascinating: obsession, identity, and the pursuit of greatness at the highest level. Because when you strip Formula 1 down to its core, it’s not just about racing. It’s about precision, pressure, ego, innovation… and the fine margins between life and death.

To get into all of this, I’m joined today by Cameron C.C., a YouTuber who has built a loyal following through his deep, thoughtful analysis of the sport. From the mythos of drivers like Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher, to the dominance of modern teams and the impact of regulation changes, Cameron brings a perspective that cuts through the surface-level noise. We also get into the idea of authenticity, not just in sport, but in content creation, what it means to stay real in an environment driven by algorithms, narratives, and mass appeal. If you’re a fan of Formula 1, or even just curious about what drives people to obsess over something at this level, I think you’ll really enjoy this one.

Today I’m joined by former FBI profiler Ray Carr, a man who spent decades on the front lines of criminal investigation. From dismantling organized crime networks to pursuing serial killers, Ray’s career offers a rare, behind-the-scenes look at how law enforcement understands and anticipates human behavior at its darkest edges.

We explore the realities of criminal profiling, what it is, what it isn’t, and how it’s evolved over time. We get into the psychology behind repeat offenders, the structure and influence of the mob, and one particularly gripping case: a serial bank robber who operated for over 30 years, hitting more than 50 banks while staying one step ahead of investigators.
